Big wheels touch down, half past nine
Immigration pullin me outta line
Looked em in the eye said man to man
I'm just kickin back in Amsterdam
Must've been long about half past ten
Immigration man finally let me in
I said taxi driver take me to the hotel grand
I'm just kickin back in Amsterdam
I've been pushin too hard
I've been thinkin too much
I've begun to wonder if I've lost my touch
Right here I'm gonna make my stand
Kickin back in Amsterdam
Well it's hot back home in Tennessee
Gettin hotter every day
That it waits for me
I sent the alley guys to Dixieland
I'm just kickin back in Amsterdam
The coffee shop's smokin and the red light's on
The cops don't care so it can't be wrong
Yeah the place around the corner's got a badass band
They're just kickin back in Amsterdam
Big wheels take off half past five
It's a mighty miracle that I'm alive
Yeah well I do these things cause I know I can
Kickin back in Amsterdam
Yeah I'm kickin back in Amsterdam
Well I do these things because I know I can
I'm just kickin back in Amsterdam
Well I do these things cause I know I can
